Congratulations to my sellers who closed on their South Miami home last week for a sales price of $1,075,000. This home offerred 3,983 square feet of living space on a 14,000 square foot lot and was built in 2007. This is only the second home in South Miami that closed this year for over $1,000,000 (the other was located at 6695 SW 69th Avenue and sold for $1,400,000 by Shelton and Stewart).

The home located at 7731 SW 52nd Avenue sold recently for a sales price of $1,050,000. In my opinion the sellers got a great price for the home considering that it was built in 1989 and needed some remodeling. The home sold for $276.00 per square foot while brand new construction homes in High Pines are selling only slightly higher at $285.00 per foot. The listing agent was William Hodges of EWM Realtors.

The map above marks all of the closed sales in South Miami for the first quarter of 2011. As you can see, all but two of them occurred west of US1. Perhaps buyers are lured by the lower price points offerred west of US1 – the average sale price there is $250,000 which is signiifcantly lower than those experienced east of US1. Checking on the distribution of “active” listings, there are also two-thirds more listings on the west side compared to the east. To view all homes for sale in South Miami, click here.

I have many clients who are interested in purchasing a home within the boundaries of the Sunset Elementary School District. The boundaries put out by the school system are difficult to ascertain from their website (see above), so the best way to find a home in the Sunset Elementary district is to head to the MLS. When Realtors insert the information for a particular listing on the MLS they are also supposed to enter in the districts that correspond with that address. If the information isn’t there, you can manually find out a property’s school district by entering in the address on the Dade County Public School System’s website.
